Do you know if you can find his books on PDF or for sale anywhere?

Also this is a good read on Anglo-American and Albanian relations from 1912 to the 1950's. Someone posted on Reddit and it's very interesting.

I have two of his books (te jetosh ne ishull & Shqiperia) as pdf files. I'll upload them for you when I'll get at my apartment.

Thnx for that link.

Plako, I don't know which books you're looking for, but there's a website called http://www.shfletuesi.com, where you can find all kinds. They also have a Facebook page, where you can ask for titles, and someone might provide the ones you wish.

The website isn't working at the moment, so they might have a problem with it. But they'll probably figure it out soon.

EDIT: I've just read on their Facebook, that they expect to be back very soon with their website.

I am looking for a couple of books from Ben Blushi, everyone I've spoken to raves about him but the only way to get my hands on them is to buy them from Albania. I rarely read Albanian books anymore, except for Kadare, so am trying to get back to reading in Albanian again.

If there are any other books people can recommend please feel free to do so.

Thanks for the heads up Migjen, I started following Shfletuesi on FB.

This is at least a decent starting point for Albanian literature. Probably hasn't been updated since like the early 2000s though.

I hate reading off a screen so I always end up just re-reading Ismail Kadare books. Next time I go Albania I'm gonna have make sure to buy a few books while I'm there.

I find it hard to read any of the Albanian Renaissance writers. I guess it's due to them being mandatory reading in school.

I can't even read Kadare's books in Albanian. Just pick em up in English.

Shqiperia
https://www.sendspace.com/file/pw45p0

Te jetosh ne ishull
https://www.sendspace.com/file/a5wdeb

And this is also a must read, if curious about Kosovo's politics and it is mainly about Thaci and his click.
